Description

A Distinctive Houseplant and Summer Tropical.  Easy to grow in dry, gritty soil and plenty of light. a spectacular crested Euphorbia, which begins as a single fan (shown in the photo) atop a green base, set about with purplish-pink accents. Just 6 to 8 inches high and 3 to 4 inches wide. This Euphorbia adds ridges or layers, somewhat like a cabbage, until it achieves a rounded, dense, very colorful form, and is the size of a basketball.

Very low-maintenance houseplant, thriving in bright light and gritty, very well-drained soil. Let it dry out a bit between waterings, and avoid over-watering. Outdoors, it is happy in any well-drained container in full sun. It loves heat, but must be brought indoors before first frost, since it is hardy only in zones 9-11. A distinctive accent plant for any setting, it may well become your favorite!"
